Five Haunted Castles of Scotland

Glamis Castle

Built in the 14th century and the ancestral home to the Lords of Glamis, and the current home to the Earl and Countess of Strathmore and Kinghorne, Glamis Castle of Angus, Scotland, has a long tradition of ghostly tales and other weirdness. Common stories include visions of the Grey Lady, who supposedly haunts the castle’s chapel, and the White Lady, thought to be the spirit of Janet Douglas, a woman who was a widow of the Sixth Lord of Glamis and who was burnt at the stake on charges of witchcraft and conspiracy to poison King James the Fifth.
